The GnATTERbox

A general talking shop for any subject under the sun (even Monty Python). This would also be a good place to make suggestions about the site itself or about these forums (or "fora", if you're particularly pedantic).

Unfortunately at the moment it is just looking. Modelling (and firing on the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways) is out of the window at the moment due to some rather trying personal circumstances Hopefully things should be back to normal, whatever that is, before too much longer.

I tend to only model over Christmas, when work slows down. Just logged in for the first time in ages....had a search for my thread on my first GN15 layout...OMG it's three and a half years since I started it and nothing has been done for at least two years. Hopefully get some done over the next three weeks.

Still active in Gn15, but dabbling in other scale/gauge combos as the mood strikes.I am working slowly on a layout based around the Ned Kelly bushranging legend in Australia. Slowly I am building up a stock of Smallbrook Gn15 Emett locos and kits for this, and building them equally slowly. I have a loose commitment to show the layout at the next ANGC at Easter 2019.Just before Sidelines Gn15 became scarce I did a big order for locos and wagon kits. These are all built now, needing a bit of weathering and detailing but await a layout to run them on. Fortunately I enjoy building small layouts, so maybe the wait won't be too long.regardsGeoff Potter

Interests: Building and running exhibition layouts now in Gn15, previously in 009 scale narrow gauge for 34 years. I like steam locos and like to achieve a degree of realism. I am also interested in motor buses from 1945 to 1969.
